Forest inventories throughout the world have evolved gradually over
time. The content as well as the concepts and de?nitions employed
are constantly adapted to the users' needs. Advanced inventory
systems have been established in many countries within Europe, as
well as outside Europe, as a result of development work spanning
several decades, in some cases more than 100 years. With
continuously increasing international agreements and commitments,
the need for information has also grown drastically, and reporting
requests have become more frequent and the content of the reports
wider. Some of the agreements made at the international level have
direct impacts on national economies and international decisions,
e. g. , the Kyoto Protocol. Thus it is of utmost importance that
the forest information supplied is collected and analysed using
sound scienti?c principles and that the information from different
countries is comparable. European National Forest Inventory (NFI)
teams gathered in Vienna in 2003 to discuss the new challenges and
the measures needed to get data users to take full advantage of
existing NFIs. As a result, the European National Forest Inventory
Network (ENFIN), a network of NFIs, was established. The ENFIN
members decided to apply for funding for meetings and collaborative
activities. COST- European Cooperation in Science and Technology -
provided the necessary ?n- cial means for the realization of the
program.
